“A short walk leads to the beach from this Whitstable accommodation, which also sits within walking distance of both Whitstable and Hearne Bay. The heated swimming pool is a nice addition, and the lodging is well-equipped and evidently well-maintained for comfort. In my opinion, it's a particularly good choice for families or small groups seeking a relaxed seaside experience.”
